The instructions for Ortho Evra and Evra (the contraceptive patch) both say that if you miss the schedule by more than one day (by keeping a patch on for 1 day too long, by losing a patch for more than one day, or by forgetting to put a new patch on for more than one day), that you could get pregnant. The instructions advise putting on a new patch, and letting that day being your new start day. After 7 days, the instructions say, you can have sex again without a barrier device.

The patch and all oral contraceptives are based on the theory that you will ovulate after 8 days without the hormones. If you are removing the patch for the seven days during week four and don't put on a new patch at the beginning of the new week you could ovulate on the 8th day.
